Alexandru Elisei 96275c8f6c KVM: arm64: Don't zero the cycle count register when PMCR_EL0.P is set
[ Upstream commit 2a71fabf6a1bc9162a84e18d6ab991230ca4d588 ]

According to ARM DDI 0487G.a, page D13-3895, setting the PMCR_EL0.P bit to
1 has the following effect:

"Reset all event counters accessible in the current Exception level, not
including PMCCNTR_EL0, to zero."

Similar behaviour is described for AArch32 on page G8-7022. Make it so.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
